No helmet because he's gone 30 years without one, right? And he also did not take any ID. An idiot kid in a white car ran a stop sign. I mean, why should he stop, he was just driving around this same community?<BR/><BR/>So C&C t-bones the car with his bike. His knee hit the bike's handlebars and he flips completely over the hood of the car and lands on the road. He's laying there in the road, no one knows who he is because he doesn't have his wallet on him either and they get him to talk a bit. Gives them the first 3digits of his girlfriend's number and the last 4 digits of his number. Someone finally realizes the prefix isn't right, tries the area prefix and gets ahold of his son. <BR/><BR/>He was out of work for several weeks, mainly with the damage done to his knee, but there was definitely some concussion issues. <BR/><BR/>Then he buys another stupid bike and rides it without a helmet. <BR/><BR/>Guess you'll stay in business a little longer GB.<BR/><BR/>Love ya C&C.Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03121530659338322937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12452759.post-70675240496585264482009-03-26T15:35:00.000-07:002009-03-26T15:35:00.000-07:00GB -I read your post originally on the fly and mis...GB -<BR/><BR/>I read your post originally on the fly and missed that the report said they weren't restrained. <BR/><BR/>It's asinine.

If they would just give me a heads up on the day I need to wear one, that would be handy. One motorcycle wreck on 30 years of riding is pretty good odds in my favor. I bet if I rode shotgun with you GB I probably would feel way different.CnChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14697018842346746668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12452759.post-23241874740985393552009-03-25T16:45:00.000-07:002009-03-25T16:45:00.000-07:00Put me and my peers out of work.A long time ago, i...<I>Put me and my peers out of work.</I><BR/><BR/>A long time ago, in a state far to the west of where I live now, I had a friend. A really, really good friend.<BR/><BR/>He was a firefighter/medic, and his second job involved household goods and trucks and me. We were co-drivers for a local moving company. Bummer was, that every time we had a day off, he had a shift to cover, so anytime we could get together and surf, or fish, or just shoot the breeze was a big bonus.<BR/><BR/>We never spent a holiday together. He was ALWAYS needed, as were all the crewmembers, because of idiots like the lady in your post.<BR/><BR/>I sure do miss him.caryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01122159049927843800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12452759.post-63246348474772592042009-03-25T14:46:00.000-07:002009-03-25T14:46:00.000-07:00The Deputy indicated the kids weren't restrained, ...The Deputy indicated the kids weren't restrained, CJ.<BR/>Babies are resilient.Greybeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11919862790973521778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12452759.post-21192153960358205032009-03-25T14:27:00.000-07:002009-03-25T14:27:00.000-07:00GB -I'm going to assume the children were properly...GB -<BR/><BR/>I'm going to assume the children were properly restrained otherwise I doubt they would've still been in the car.<BR/><BR/>Why would she secure them and not herself?

I mean sure, when I was 6 my parents would toss us in the back of the truck and off we'd go to friends houses but no one had invented car seats yet. Now, there are people that will just GIVE you a carseat for your kids if you can't afford one.<BR/>*grumble*jinkstohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05645519830822645928noreply@blogger.com
